Expose

Dior Expose High Fidelity Eyeshadow Palette ($62.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a new, permanent eyeshadow palette that features earth-toned neutrals. I spotted in on Selfridges last week and purchased mine there, but it’s now available through Dior’s website and some of the accompanying new palettes are at Sephora (but not all). It features a new formula that’s supposed to have “highly pigmented” color with “spectacular staying power.” The formula was better than some of the past iterations from Dior, though it was still more semi-opaque to opaque in coverage but had seven to eight-hour wear. The big difference that I noticed was in the texture; it was firmer (but not stiff) in the pan and had less dustiness than some of the past formulations.

Expose #1

Expose #1 is a light-medium, peachy gold with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied evenly to bare skin, and I was able to build up the coverage to opaque by applying a second layer. The consistency was smooth, firm but not stiff, and blendable on the lid. This shade wore well for seven and a half hours on me.

Expose #2

Expose #2 is a bright, white gold with warm, yellow undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good color payoff, though it was shy of full coverage, that had a soft, smooth, and blendable texture that wasn’t dusty or too firm in the pan. The color lasted nicely for seven and a half hours on me.

Expose #3

Expose #3 is a medium-dark, diryt gold with warm, olive undertones and a pearly sheen. The pigmentation was fantastic, while the consistency was smooth, denser (but not too dense or too thick, so it still layered and blended well with the other finishes in the palette), and easy to work with on the lid. It started to fade on me after eight hours of wear.

Expose #4

Expose #4 is a light-medium yellow with warm undertones and a soft, pearl sheen. It had nearly opaque color payoff, and the eyeshadow was smooth but not dusty, so it did not sheer out too readily. The eyeshadow was still blendable on the lid, as the texture was soft and smooth to the touch, but kept its intensity. This shade wore well for eight hours on me.
